The Sharpshooter, 6 gun screw sloop (iron), of 503 tons measurement and 160 horse power of en gines, was tried yesterday at the measured mile in Stokes Bay, near Portsmouth, to ascertain her rate of steaming prior to being commissioned, and was afterwards tested in her steering powers with Capt. F. Warren's patent auxiliary bow rudder, with which she is fitted in addition to the ordinary stern rudder. The Sharpshooter is an iron-built vessel, constructed from the designs of the late Mr Fin chain, and launched from Blackwell in 1847. Her last service was on the coast of Africa, on her re turn from which she was put out of commission at Portsmouth, and she has since then undergone very extensive repairs to her hull; her original engines have been condemned and removed from her, and she has received others, transferred from the Lynx, of 160 horse power, by Messrs. Penn and Son. She has been lined internally with the " Spence's patent preserving cement," and externally she has been payed over below the water-line with several rival pigment composition intended for the preservation of the ship's bottom under water, so that, altogether, she may be looked upon as an experimental ship. Her armament consists of one 40-pounder rifled gun on the forecastle, one 58-cwt. 6-inch smooth bore aft, and four 23-cwt. 6-inch smoothbores for broadside service. Her racks round the upper deck contain the usual allowance of round 321 b. shot, ancient-looking bunches of grape, and casesof canister. The vessel left Portsmouth harbour at 7 a.m., in charge of Commander Brett, of her Ma• jesty's ship Asia, and at once was steered for the measured mile, her draught of water being lift. 2in. aft and 11ft. forward: She is complete in ar mament, rigging, and stores, and therefore, only requires her crew, provisions, and ammunition to render her ready for immediate sea service. Her propeller is a left-handed " Griffiths." Six runs with full boiler power were first made over the mile, with the following results, in knots :-Ist run, 8.430; 2d, 9.113; 3d, 8 . 823 ; 4th, 8,665 ; otb, 9.600; 6th, 8.571 ; mean speed of the ship, 8945 knots. The maximum number of the engines' revolutions was 100, and their minimum number 97i. The temperatures on deck and below were as follows :-Ist run, on deck, 58 deg. ; in engine -room, 71 deg. ; in stoke-hole 90 and DO dog.: GUI run, nn deck, 64 dPg. in engine room, 74 deg. ; in stokehole 94 and 98 deg. Two runs were afterwards made with half-boiler power, the first giving the ship a speed of 8.551 knots, and the second 6.990 knots, the mean of the two being 7770 knots. The pressure of steam was 201 b., and the vacuum was at 25 in. maximum, and 221 in. minimum. The trials of speed having been brought to a conclusion those of the rudders commenced, both being tried, of course, in order to procure the required comparison of the powers of each. The stern rudder was first tested to port and starboard with fall boiler power, and then in the same direc tion with half boiler power. With the rudder hard to port it was hove up (five men being at the wheel throughout these tests) in 30 sec to an angle of 33 deg, the half.circle being completed in 2 min, and the full circle in 3 min 53 sec. The revolutions of the engines were 99 at the commencement, bringing up to 93 before the circle was completed. With the rudder hard to port it was next hove over to 29i deg of angle in 30 sec, the half-circle made in 2 min 10 sec, and the full circle in 4 min 19 seet The revolutions of the engines, as before, were from 99 to 93. With half-boiler power the rudder was hove over to an angle of 38 deg to port in 22secs, the half circle made in 2min Maces, and the full in 4min 22secs. The revolutions of the engines were from 87 to 82. In the second trial, at half-boiler power, the rudder was hove over to an angle of 30 deg to starboard in 26 secs ; the half circle made in 2 min 25 sec, and the full in 4 min 55 sec. The revo lutions of the engines were the same as in the last trial to port. Half-boiler power still was kept in use, and two trials similar to the last were made next, but now with both rudders, stern and bow, in use, with the following results. Hard to starboard— Angle of stern rudder 301 deg ; do. bow rudder, 391 deg ; half-circle made in 2 min 17 secs ; full circle in 4 min 49 sec ; revolutions of engines, 86 to 81, Hard to port—Angle of stern rudder, 38 deg; do. bow rudder, 40 deg; half circle made in 2 min 4 sec ; full circle made in 4 min 6 sec ; revolutions of engines from 86 to 81. Steam was next further eased down, and the vessel going " very easy" ahead, two circles were made with the engines going 60 revolutions at starting, the first being to starboard, the angle of the bow rudder being 40 deg, that of the stern 301 deg. The half circle was made in 4 min 34 sec, and completed to the full in 9 min 8 sec. The second was to port, the angle of the bow rudder being 391 deg, that of the stern 38 deg, while the half circle was made in this instance in 4 min 3 sec and the full in 8 min 20 sec. The engines in both instances slack ened in their revolutions from 50 to 47. The ship was next put ahead at full boiler power and speed, and both rudders again brought into play. In the first circle made under these circumstances, the stern rudder was hove to starboard at an angle of 30 deg and the bow rudder to 391 deg, the half circle made in 2 min 4 sec, and the full in 4 min and 9 sec. The engines started at 95 revolutions and slackened down to 91. In the second circle the stern rudder was hove to port to an angle of 38 deg, and the bow rudder to 40 deg, the halficircle being made in 1 min 51 see, and the full circle in 3 min 38 sec. The engines started at 96 revolutions and eased down to 91. This was the last experiment with both rudders, and several others followed with the bow rudder alone acting, bat only two of these were noted, as it was evident the vessel was not sufficiently in the water forward to allow the bow rudder to fully develop its powers. These two circles were made with the following re sults :-1. Astern. at full speed, with the rudder hard to starboard, the half-circle was made in 5 min 18 sec, and the full circle in 8 min 17 sec. 2.

The officials on board had no means at their command of accurately measuring the circles made, but it was clear that their area made under the in fluence of both rudders was less than with one rudder, and the time was also, it will be seen on reference to the figures, rather less. It must be borne in mind, in all fairness to Capt Warren, that the bow rudder fitted to the Sharpshooter is merely an " auxiliary" to the main or stern rudder, to assist in turning the ship, either when going ahead or /z/..---gi72.-e-,.-?.."/ Pxl Address from York to Mr. Gla , The unenfranchised classes of York have held a public meeting, and unanimously voted an address t 3 the Chan-. cellor of the Exchequer, which, elegantly bound as a thin. quarto volume, and every page illuminated with exquisite art, has just been presented to Mr Gladstone by a deputa tion represented by Mr Westhead, M.P., and Mr Alderman Leeman. The address, which was signed by Mr Charles Ernest, the chairman of the working class meeting, was as creditable to its originators, from the terms in which it was expressed, as from the taste with which it was executed. The address, and the answer returned by Mr Gladstone were the following ; "To the Right Honourable William Evart Gladstone, M.P., Chancellor of the Exchequer. "Honoured Sir, "We, the working men of the city of York, in public meeting assembled, desire to express to you our appreciation of your masterly and courageous speech, delivered in the House of Commons on the 11th of May last, in defence of the work'ng classes, and in advocacy of their right to a fair share of representation in the Parliament of this country. "We read your speech with admiration and a deep feeling of gratitude. It is a rare thing for a Minister of the Crown so sp.ak with so much pride and generous warmth of our order. From the time when you first re vised the tariff, and, standing by the side of Sir Robert Peel, by your eloquence assisted him to break down the l r a a b m o p u a r i r n t sg poor,of P ryo you u e c h t i a o v n e , , a b n y dgi m ve cheap of brad a ta e tee n t a o n h t i h p e , been winning the hearts and affections of the people of this nation. " Your great financial scheme of 1860 is still fresh in our memory. The treaty of commerce with France, and the abolition of the taxes on knowledge, with both of which measures your name is honourably and conspicuously asso ciated, are producing blessings and benefits which are i n , 13 tlivmea have marked the manifestations of your sympathy with the down-trodden and oppressed of every clime. You have advanced the cause of freedom in foreign lands oy the withering power and unflinching courage with which you have from time to time assailed and exposed the mietleeds and cruelties of continental tyrants. "To the provident operative you have, by your Post office Savings Bank Bill, given security for his small sav ings; and your Government Annuities Bill of this session is a measure which will stimulate the people to greater thrift and forethought, and inspire them with more inde pendence. These acts, together with your speeches on the last-named measure, and on Mr. Baines' Borough Fran.. chise Bill, make up a life that commands our lasting gra titude. Mr. William Smith O'Brien died on Thursday at Bangor. His name was first ridiculous as a pri soner of the coalhole of the House of Commons ; next, notorious as the leader of the Irish rebels of 1848 ; again, ridiculous when he fought and was captured in Widow Welsh's cabbage garden, and, finally, simply obscure and disregarded. What in fatuatiou possessed such a man—a country gentle man of property, a Cambridge man, a man of unblemished personal honour—to embark in such absurd enterprises as made the name of " Smith O'Brien" less the hangman's affair than a subject for unlimited jokes ! His elder brother, Lord Inchi. quin, lives the honoured lieutenant of Clare, and a representative peer of his country in the British Parliament ; he, though a man of greater ability, lived latterly away from the land which might have been proud to own him, " We believe that when you say it is for the interests of the country that the question of Parliamentary Reform should be speedily ascertained and settled, that you will strive to accomplish a settlement that will be satisfactory to the people. We believe this because we think you incapable of deceiving. We have marked the integrity and rectitude —the deep sincerity—which guide your life, " We wish to sustain you in your noble efforts to obtain for us political recognition. Hitherto we have been, and we now are, aliens in the land of our birth, We have no poli tical existence. Against the injustice of our position we have petitioned and protested. We have shown, by argu ment and conduct, our fitness for the exercise of the Parlia mentary franchise. " But we have been stigmatised as a 'vile mob,' es brutally depraved,' that would take bribes,' and ' over bear the other classes of society.' This has been said by members of t hat house which the lustre of your intellect adorns. Where is our violence ? Where our disorder? In what have we manifested a desire not to submit to the law ? We are Englishmen : we love our country : we regard her honour, and should be as ready in the day of danger to shed our blood in her defence as the highest in the land. "You, respected Sir, believe this. You have declared it, and spoken words that have sunk deep into the hearts of every working man in every corner of the land. We thank you from our inmost souls. We look to you as a powerful and consistent advocate of our cause, and may God long preserve your life. That you may continue to be the sound and impartial statesman—the friend of the poor—seeking simple justice to all—is the fervent wish and desire of the working men of this ancient city." " Signed on behalf of the meeting, "June 7, 1864." " CHARLES ERNEST." " A mockery and a show." Mr. William Smith O'Brien was born in 1803. He was the second son of Sir Edward O'Brien, fourth baronet, of Dromoland, in the county of Clare, by the eldest daughter and co-heiress of Mr William Smith, of Cahirmoyle, Limerick. His elder brother (better known as Sir Lucius O'Brien, long the Conservative M.P. for Clare) succeeded his father as fifth baronet in 1837, and became 13th Baron Inchiquin in 1855, on the death of his kins man, the Marquis of Thomond. One fact tolerably well indicates the character of the subject of this notice—that when, in 1862, Lord Inchiquin's brothers and sisters were elevated to the rank of baron's children, he refused to be included in the Royal warrant. Mr O'Brien, after an education at Harrow, and Trinity College, Cambridge, entered Parliament in 1826 as the Tory M.P. for Ennis, and opposed Mr. O'Connell at the famous Clare election. He was member for Limerick from 1835 to 1849, and this waa the important part of his sena torial career—the position of a Protestant Irish county member being his Archimedean stand-point, whence he could, as he thought, move the Irish world to O'Connellism. It would not be of any use, and it would be cer tainly of little interest, to mention the hon. gentle man's speeches, and the little skirmishes which were perpetually taking place in consequence, preliminary to that in the cabbage garden. But the month of April, 1846, produced a terrible outburst of Celtic indignation on the part of the member for Limerick county, which ended in a coalhole. The cause of this outburst was quite worthy of its close. At the end of March the Committee of Selection made a special re port to the House of Commons to the effect that Mr. O'Brien baying been duly summoned to attend on a railway bill as ordered was a " defaulting member." Mr. O'Brien alleged, in a letter dated from the Ox ford and Cambridge Club, that he declined to serce on committees " on any private bills except such as related to Ireland," as the opposition to the intended Irish coercion bill required all his time and his faculties, which—as he justly said of the latter at least—were " limited." In spite of a gen. tlemanly and temperate letter from Mr. Backnall Estcourt, member for Oxford University, and chair. man of the Committee of Selection, Mr. O'Brien refused to yield. On the 29th of April Mr. Henley reported this fact, and Mr. Estcou rt moved that the hon. gentleman was guilty of a contempt of the House, which motion was carried by 133 to 13. The next day Mr. O'Brien was committed to cus tody. If he expected to be " honoured with a residence in the Tower," as a contemporary journal remarks, he was mistaken. He was assigned a amall apartment called the cellar, belonging to the porters, on the north side of the House." The next indignity was a " burst of laughter" when the present Lord Fer moy read a very defiant letter addressed to "my dear Roche" from the House of Commons Prison," in which he said that, " suffering from the injustice of the house, he expected nothing from its generosity." The general election released Mr. O'Brien, but his confinement had not brought him wisdom. The Revolution of February in Paris, and the general upheaving of the continent of Europe, seemed to produce a kind of echo in Ireland. O'Connell had been dead a year, or Inc fun he would have made of Mr. Smith O'Brien's ridiculous deputation .to Paris, with Meagher of the Sword, O'Gorman, and others, who are immortalised by Mr. Thackeray. M. Lamartine was good enough to let the treason• mongers down easily, but he flatly told them that the Republic "would not commit an act, would not utter a word, would not breathe an insinuation" against the " inviolability of nations," which grand phrase merely meant doing England the kindness to let her mind her own business. The British . G overnment did not seem to appreciate Mr. 0 Brien s love for French fashions and tried him for sedition, Mr. O'Brien having, like many another prophet in his own country, been grievously assaulted at Limerick. He was defended b y Mr. Isaac Butt i n the Hall of Four Courts , and, as might be expect e d , the jury did not agre e, and the matter came to an end, though simila r luck did not befall John Aiit chel. Nothing daunted, Mr. Smith O'Brien, having been negatively successful at sedition, resolved to make a direct attempt at high treason. Towards " 11, Carlton House-terrace, June 16, 1864. " My Dear Sirs,—l have to acknowledge with sincere gratitude the receipt of the address from the working men of the city of York, which you have bees eo good as to place in my hands, " The terms and spirit of that address supply me with a fresh proof of a truth which has long been impressed upon my mind, namely, that in this country, while the errors and shortcomings of a public man are regarded with every indulgence, his well-intended efforts to render sere cc to the State will never fail to receive an appreciation, which in some instances, like that now before me, goes far beyond his deserts. "I hope that the thank I now cordially return to those whom you represent, will be taken as addressed to all who have expressed, or who be inclined to express, psrti.• cularly with regard to the subject of the franchise, senti ments corresponding with theirs,—l rerna'n, my dear Sirs, very faithfully yours, (Signed.)

The fighting may have taken place, but the proceedings of "the Giant O'Brien," as he was called, was mere skulking, He was arrested at Thurles on August 5, and so the silly insurrection came to an end. Mr. O'Brien was tried for high treason and condemned to death. Her Majesty was advised to commute the death penalty, but Mr. O'Brien —the ruling passion strong even to death — refused the proffered boon, which, however, the bigotry and intolerance of the odious English Go vernment compelled him to accept. He was sent to Bermuda, and refused to join Mitchel in forfeiting his word and escaping. He was ultimately pardoned (1856), and has been only lately favourably known by a most sensible and judicious letter against en listment in Ireland for the Federal party. Mr. O'Brien married, about 1836, the daughter of Mr. Joseph Gabbett, of Limerick, by whom he had a large family. His estates, which were, before his conviction, transferred to his family, had not come back to him, his eldest son having come into pas session of Cahirmoyle, giving his father an annua, income from the estate. o w of Thus dies a descend ant of Brien Boroihme and of f Murrogh O'Brien, a lesspe r 8 but a nge whose o s nieari vianth honour wasunimpeachable, judgment, conceit, and impetuous love of notor iety led him into the escapades which in any other country would have cost him his life ; but which, under the sway of the British Government, which he abhorred, only brought him into contempt, and let him die in the obscurity which was the last thing he would have coveted, Railway and Public Companies ill Parlialilent, Yesterday the case for the opposition of the cor poration of London to the East London Railway closed in Lord Stanley's committee, and Mr Phinn, Q.C., and Mr Murphey opened the opposition for the London Docks, who object to that portion of the line which proposes to run under their waters ways and we:el - louses. The evidenc3 yesterday was principally confined to the alleged injurious effect which the vibration caused by trains was calculated to have on the vast stock of wines and spirits in the dock company's vats and vaults, the probability of which had excited, according to the witnesses, wine merchants and brokers, considerable apprehension in the trade, who were in the habit of drawing their finest supplies from the dock depots. The commit tee of which Mr Hassard is chairman, after hearing end Gloucester toargument bury be Mr Coleridge and Mr Cripps on the whole case of the competing lines of the Worcester, Dean Forest, and Monmout h Rai lßailway, intimated,Railway, subject tween the parties, that they were dispos e d t o peas the bill of the Gloucester and Ledbury Railway, striking out the running p owers to the junotion at Hartford and to the Ledbury Station, that they would give power to the Dean Forest and Mon mouth to elect to become, within six months, joint proprietors of so much of the line as intervenes be tween Newent and Gloucester, with suspensory clauses for two years, and should the Gloucester and Ledbury not proceed then, that the Worcester, Dean Forest, and Monmouth should be at liberty to make their own line. If on the contrary the Gloucester and Ledbury did make their line the powers of Worcester and Dean Forest should cease. Adjourned to Monday for further consideration of clauses. In Mr Watlington's committee, after hearing Mr Somerset, the bill for the Swansea and Nesth and Brecon Railway passed. After taking the evidence of Mr Stewart, Secretary of the Company, and hear ing the opposition of the Lancashire and Carlisle, the committe approved and passed the bill of the London and North Western for various additional powers. Mr Burke, Q.C., stated the case of the Wellingto n and Drayton Railway, for an extension between two points in the company's authorised line of 1862, at Wellington and Longden, and for a lease or amal gamation with the Great Western. After hearing counsel and general evidence the committee passed the bill. Sir F. Goldemid's committee on the steam boat bill of the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln. shire Railway took additional evidence in favour of authorising that company to work steam vessels between their port at Great Grimsby and Rotter dam, Antwerp, Hamburg, Bordeaux, Dieppe, Fl us h, ing, Lubeck, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Revel, Cron stadt, St. Petersburg, and Koningsberg, and for that purpose to raise £250,000 b y new or preference s h ar es, and L 83,000 by loan.

COMMENCEME.:ST OF THE WORKS AT SMITHFIELD. — . Yesterday morning the engineers connected with the railway companies and new metropolitan market under the Corporation, proceeded to set out the site for the new Metropolitan Meat and Poultry Markets at Smithfield, acid to determine, in accordance with the working plane, the points at which the Metropolitan loop line, and the London, Chatham and Dover curve, from the junction at Skinner street—the former at the north-western corner of the mar ket, and the latter at the south - wectern—are to enter the underground surface of the proposed markets. Worknion were aleo engaged all day in removing the pillar lamp posts and the lamps, and in taking u p the gas mains belonging to the respective gas companies. The routes of the streets w hi c h are to surround the market are also being staked out, and we are informed that the works will be henceforward carried out jointly by the Corporation and the companies with as little delay as may be possible--thoAe at the top of King•street, or the western end, being first undertaken.
